GSDMD (Gasdermin D) Mediates Pathological Cardiac Hypertrophy and Generates a Feed-Forward Amplification Cascade via Mitochondria-STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) Axis

Abstract

Based on these findings, we propose a mechanism by which GSDMD generates a self-amplifying, positive feed-forward loop with the mitochondria-STING axis. This finding points to the prospects of GSDMD as a key therapeutic target for hypertrophy-associated heart diseases.
